• Prepare the documents proposed in【6-1】-【6-4】, scan them and upload
them into the system.
• The button in this colour means it is mandatory; and the button in
another colour means it is optional.
• Documents in 【7-1】-【7-2】are generated automatically by the system
(according to the info you’ve filled in).
• Please be aware that before you hit the “submit application” button in
【8】, you are allowed to withdraw what you’ve uploaded or change
whatever the information you’ve filled in. Once you click【8】and submit
them, you cannot revise anything.

IPAC Postdoctoral Application Guide
【6-1】: Click to download the .doc file. It should look like Figure 33.
• You only need to upload the first page of this file.
• “who’s in charge, sign and seal”: this is about where you save your personnel
files. Please find the people in charge of your personnel files, ask him/her to
sign and stamp the official seal.
【About personal profile】In China, we have personal files/archives that record
our information. When a student moves from School A (in China) to School B (also in
China), his archive is transferred from A to B. If the student moves from School A (in
China) to School C (say, in the U.S.), due to the different system within two countries,
apparently his personal archive will not be sent to USA. Also, School A will no longer
keep his files. In this case, the student has to find an authorized agency (e.g. a legal
Agency D) to store his files. When he comes back from USA and again works in China,
say Company E, then, the human resources department of E will take over his
personal files from D.
【For foreign applicants】 We understand that some countries do not hold such
system on personal files. For applicants from those countries, we suggest that you
get a sign and a seal from the latest university/company that you worked for. In
Figure 33, ① is the talent service center, which refers to the agency D mentioned
above, ② is the organization you worked for before you come to China. You can
choose either ① or ② to get a seal. The seal should come from an authorized
organization, and the signature should come from a person that is in charge of it
(Don't sign your own name!) . In ②, the text means that your former employer says:
this person now has no employment relationship with this organization, but we
temporarily preserve his archive for him.
【Please note that】 The .doc file does not have an English version. The signature
and seal can be in English.
